Puget Sound Business Journal cited Intelius, Inc. as one of the top 25 corporate philanthropists in the Puget Sound. Intelius’ commitment to support and involve its community garnered its inclusion on this list.

The various corporate initiatives Intelius has sponsored resulted in over $1 million and hundreds of volunteer hours donated to organizations promoting education, basic needs, and healthcare. Additionally, these organizations specifically focus on supporting and developing youth. Intelius supports organizations such as United Way and Hopelink, which work to minimize hunger and homelessness for low-income families. Children’s Hospital, another beneficiary, helps provide disadvantaged children with equal access to health services. In terms of education, the University of Washington offers undergraduate students scholarships in business and computer science, made possible by Intelius. This cross-section of organizations supported by Intelius reveals the principles on which the company began and currently operates.

According to Naveen Jain, Intelius’ co-founder and CEO, “Intelius is driven to support our community and its members both by providing services that help protect and empower them and their loved ones, and by giving to organizations which do the same,” he continues, “By focusing on the fulfillment of basic needs such as education, healthcare and housing, we seek to make an immediate impact on the lives of our community members. It’s rewarding to be acknowledged for our efforts, and we commend all the corporations who are doing so much to make a difference right in our backyard.”

Other recent recognition for Intelius includes the WSA’s Consumer Product of the Year Award in January 2006 for its identity theft prevention product and its inclusion on the list of Washington CEO Magazine’s Largest Private Companies in early May 2006.
